Tamsen Webster

Signature stories come from all sorts of experiences, from the ordinary and mundane to the fantastical and unbelievable.

But what if your story has nothing to do with you? What if you weren’t there or even alive when it happened?

It might go against the grain for most speakers, but it’s never been a problem for Tamsen Webster.

With a glittering career as a speaker, strategist, marketing maestro, TEDx executive producer and Weight Watchers leader, Tamsen has more than enough stories of her own to tell, but her most popular and powerful talk remains her signature story that starts 200 years ago.

She’s been telling the story of Dr Ignaz Semmelweis to rapturous applause for years and, now, she’s telling it for Standing Ovation.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did, Clappers.
